Dr. Elizabeth (Liz) Barbaretti
For as long as I can remember I had wanted to be a phyiscall therapist. I orginally thought I would work with Orthopedic or Geriatric patients but fell in love with Pediatrics have been spent most of my career working with children of all ages.
I graduated from Ithaca College with my Bachelors of Science in Physical Therapy. My first job was at New York University Hospital / Rush Institute of Rehabiliative Medicine. While working at NYU/RIRM, I worked on my Master Degreee at New York Universtiy. Following the hosptial, I worked in a variety of preschools, also working in the home care setting with children. Finally starting at Peekskill City School District on a part time basis and then moving onto full time. After I started at Peekskill, I again returned to school for my transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Stony Brook Univeristy.
In addition to my school experience, I have obtained my pediatric certification in Neuro Developmental Treatment. This training involves an intensive 8 week hands on course on movement analysis, developmental assessment and hands on experience.
I have also completed my 200 hours of training to become a registered Yoga teacher, with additional certification in Children's Yoga.
